Seminari dei Baby Geometri

25 Feb '16

Cari tutti, Martedì 1 Marzo alle 14:30 presso l'aula seminari del DM riprendono i seminari dei Baby Geometri. Lo speaker sarà Kirill Kuzmin (Università di Pisa) e terrà un seminario dal titolo: "Relativa Iperbolicità e Rigidità Quasi Isometrica" di cui riporto l'abstract: In questo seminario esploreremo alcune proprietà di gruppi e di varietà invarianti per quasi isometria. Tratteremo in particolare oggetti che si possono costruire a partire da oggetti più semplici e ci concentreremo su quelli che possiedono la proprietà di ``Relativa iperbolicità'' che generalizza l'idea di iperbolicità di Gromov, che esprime una condizione di curvatura negativa su larga scala, a contesti dove tale proprietà di curvatura non è più valida. Tutti siete invitati a partecipare. A seguire: 08 Marzo, Daniele Celoria 15 Marzo, Daniele Angella 22 Marzo, Chinh Lu 05 Aprile, Luigi Caputi 07 Aprile, Maurizio Parton Per saperne di più sui prossimi seminari scrivete ad uno degli organizzatori o consultate la pagina: http://gecogedi.dimai.unifi.it/seminars/ Mailing-list: babygeom(a)poisson.phc.unipi.it Saluti, Nicoletta Tardini e Carlo Collari

Seminario oggi
by Bruno Martelli 17 Feb '16

17 Feb '16

Buondi, con colpevole ritardo vi ricordo il seminario di geometria di oggi, in aula seminari alle 15. Bruno Speaker: Leone Slavich Titolo: Varietà tetraedrali geometricamente bordanti Abstract: Introdurremo una costruzione che permette di realizzare alcune 3-varietà iperboliche tassellate da tetraedri ideali regolari come ipersuperfici geodetiche in una 4-varietà iperbolica. Come applicazione, mostreremo che il complementare del nodo figura 8 è realizzabile come bordo totalmente geodetico di una 4-varietà iperbolica. La costruzione è di natura essenzialmente combinatoria, e sfrutta le proprietà di un politopo di Coxeter iperbolico di dimensione 4: la 5-cella rettificata.

by Simone Calamai 16 Feb '16

16 Feb '16

http://gecogedi.dimai.unifi.it/event/225/ Date: Monday, April 20, 2016 -- Tuesday, April 22, 2016 Place: Mathematics Department, Florence, Italy ######################## FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT ###################### "Special Hermitian metrics on non-Kahler manifolds" Aim of the workshop is to present the state-of-the-art on non-Kähler special metrics, which has been developing much interest and importance in the recent years, as well as to point out which open problems could be particuarly worth of further developement. The 3-days workshop consists of a 3-hours mini-course by Ben Weinkove on "The complex Monge-Ampère equation on non-Kähler manifolds", by seven 1-hour talks by distinguished international researchers, and by two 30-minutes talks by young PhD students, on Hermitian geometry of complex non-Kähler manifolds. The list of invited speakers includes: - Vestislav Apostolov (Université du Québec à Montréal) - Anna Fino (Università di Torino) - Mike Lock (The University of Texas at Austin) - Andrei Moroianu (Université de Versailles–St Quentin) - Liviu Ornea (University of Bucharest) - Alexandra Otiman (University of Bucharest) - Massimiliano Pontecorvo (Università di Roma 3) - Miron Stanciu (University of Bucharest) - Nicoletta Tardini (Università di Pisa) - Ben Weinkove (Northwestern University) For further informations and for registration (deadline: March 31), please visit the webpage: http://nonkahlermetrics2016.dimai.unifi.it/. The event is supported by: SIR2014 "Analytic aspects in complex and hypercomplex geometry", and GNSAGA of INdAM. Please, feel free to contact the organizers: - Daniele Angella (daniele.angella(a)unifi.it) - Simone Calamai (scalamai(a)math.unifi.it) - Cristiano Spotti (c.spotti(a)dpmms.cam.ac.uk) #########################################################################

Fwd: Vacancy ID 122188: Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Low-Dimensional Topology (fwd)
by Roberto Frigerio 10 Feb '16

10 Feb '16

Ricevo e inoltro, Roberto http://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/node/15923 We invite applications for a postdoctoral research position, funded by the European Research Council, to work with Professor Andras Juhasz, at the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. This is a 36 month fixed-term position and is available from 1 September 2016 (or as soon as possible thereafter). The successful candidate will work on research projects related to the grant “Low-dimensional topology in Oxford,” in particular, apply Heegaard Floer homology or similar invariants to smooth 4-manifold topology and knot concordance, but there is scope for carrying out an independent research agenda. There is also a requirement to teach up to four sets of undergraduate or graduate classes per year, determined by the demand for classes in specific areas. Applicants should have a PhD awarded or submitted (at the time of taking up the position) in mathematics or a related discipline, and be able to demonstrate a strong background in gauge-theoretic techniques in low-dimensional topology, preferably Heegaard Floer homology, and a research focus on 4-dimensional applications. A good publication record judged by the stage of his/her career, and the ability to work together with others as part of a research team are also essential. Please direct informal enquiries to the Administrative Assistant (email: vacancies(a)maths.ox.ac.uk) quoting vacancy reference 122188. Applicants should read the job description before writing their application. You will be required to upload a letter setting out how you meet the selection criteria, a curriculum vitae including full list of publications, a statement of research interests and the contact details of three referees as part of your online application. (NOTE: Applicants are responsible for contacting their referees and making sure that their letters are received by the closing date). Applications for this vacancy are to be made online. To apply for this post and for further details, including the job description and selection criteria, please click on the link below https://www.recruit.ox.ac.uk/pls/hrisliverecruit/erq_jobspec_version_4.jobs… Only applications received before 12:00 noon UK time on Monday 14th March 2016 can be considered. Committed to equality and valuing diversity.
